I'm taking my 7.5 out of my hatchback and I've heard I need to swap the brake lines from that axle to my 8.8, now it appears that the lines and dist. block are bolted down to the passenger axle tube on the 7.5 and they arent on the 8.8, the 8.8 has a vent tube/cap, will this come off easily and swap to the 8.8 and mount the same way?

What can I do??

Damn dude, if I was home I could take some pics for you. I think what I did was take off the rubber line from the body and use the one from the 8.8 rear. I can't remember anymore..damn...sorry guy.

I called around and found them so they are available, now I just need to re-route my brake line over the hump and to the drivers side... All I need to find now is the bracket that holds the brake line in place for a 5.0 car...
